Oracle Surges 20% In September As AI, Cloud Strategy Flashes Bullish Signals

Zinger Key Points
  • Oracle’s stock surged 20% in September, driven by its AI and cloud infrastructure expansion, led by key partnerships.
  • Bullish technicals show Oracle's momentum, with the stock trading above key moving averages and strong MACD signals.

Oracle Corp's ORCL stock has been on fire, up a whopping 20% in September alone, riding the wave of the company's bold AI and cloud infrastructure moves.

CEO Safra Catz isn't worried about AI demand—her concern is supply. Catz sees AI as the next frontier, much like GPS and IoT, and has India playing a key role in Oracle's AI journey.

From cloud infrastructure partnerships with Microsoft Corp, Amazon, and Google‘s parent Alphabet to AI integration across its enterprise planning software (ERP), Oracle's no longer just the "legacy tech" company—it's powering the future.

  • MACD: Oracle stock's 8.02 MACD value confirms that the momentum is firmly on the bulls' side.
  • RSI: At 69.92, Oracle’s stock is knocking on the "overbought" door, which could signal a potential pullback.

Despite its overbought RSI, Oracle's AI-infused push, cloud partnerships, and strong technical indicators indicate continued bullish momentum.

However, with its valuation climbing (now 26x forward P/E), investors may want to keep an eye on overbought conditions for any short-term cooling off.

But for now, Oracle looks poised to capitalize on its AI and cloud strategy.
